On-Device Crash Detection Testing
Note: It's crucial to set up the correct crash handler/listener to ensure proper functioning of the ML-based version. The handlers are:
- setVehicleCrashListener for Android
- setVehicleCrashHandler for iOS
Before we begin, it's essential to emphasize that safety is paramount. Always obey traffic laws and drive responsibly.
Disclaimer and warning: Sentiance does not accept any liability for risky driving behavior. At all times, respect traffic laws.
To perform this test, you'll need:
- The Sentiance crash detection app installed on a compatible mobile phone.
- The latest Sentiance mobile SDK integrated into the app (version Android 4.21.0 or iOS 5.12.1, or a related build with relaxed crash detection constraints).
- Valid SDK credentials and crash detection enabled.
- Proper phone settings: high accuracy location, no power saving or background restrictions, location and activity permissions granted.
- Verify the app can detect trips by analyzing results from a regular car trip.
In this scenario, we simulate a crash using the on-device crash detection feature. Please note that the driver should not hold the phone while performing this test.
- 1.Confirm you are stationary.
- 2.Drive at least 500 meters away from your current location to trigger a geofence exit.
- 3.Confirm the geofence exit through the foreground notification (on Android).
- 4.Drive beyond the 500-meter point at a speed exceeding 40 km/h (25 mph) for at least 20 seconds.
- 5.Hold the phone steady to simulate a "Vehicle" motion.
- 6.Do not move the phone to prevent incorrect motion detection.
- 7.After 20 seconds of driving, begin to brake.
- 8.About 1 second after braking, firmly shake the phone once while the speed is above 30 km/h (20 mph).
- 9.Continue slowing down until you come to a stop. Do not accelerate.
- 10.If movement is required, keep the speed under 5 km/h (3 mph).
- 11.Ensure you stop within 250 meters of where you shook the phone.
- 12.Stay stationary for at least 60 seconds without moving the phone.
- 13.Wait an additional 2 minutes until the foreground notification disappears.
If the test fails, you can try again. It might take a few attempts to succeed.
To improve test results, you can:
- Force stop the application and wait 5 minutes before the test.
- Temporarily turn off location (system-wide) for 5 minutes, then turn it back on and wait another 5 minutes.
- Open Google Maps or GPS test before and during the test to increase location accuracy.
- Avoid shaking the phone a second time during a trip; wait until stationary, then start again.
Similar to the real driving section.
This scenario involves using a GPS spoofing application for Android to simulate a crash. Make sure to follow the provided instructions for setting up the spoofing app and creating a route.
- 1.Start the simulation using the spoofing app.
- 2.Set the speed and other settings as instructed.
- 3.Shake the phone firmly around the endpoint of the route.
- 4.Wait for the simulation to complete and verify if a crash was reported by the SDK.
If unsuccessful, you can try the test again. It might take a few attempts to achieve the desired outcome.
To enhance GPS spoofing results, consider the following steps:
- Toggle high-accuracy location setting during spoofing.
- Turn off and then back on WiFi during spoofing.
- Force stop all applications, including the spoofing app.
- Adjust location mode settings.
- Allow WiFi scanning for apps.
- Experiment with the timing of shaking the phone.
- Avoid using device-only location mode, as it may affect the Sentiance SDK.
Revoke activity permission to potentially increase the likelihood of the SDK reporting a crash.
Remember, accurate crash detection is critical for ensuring user safety, and these tests and troubleshooting steps aim to optimize its performance.
